10 most recent of 49- Z-1702-2024 — Abbott Cholestech LDX Battery Kit, Model: 3LP656194-PCM-LD, PN: 55170
- Z-1508-2022 — The Cholestech LDX¿ System combines enzymatic methodology and solidphase technology to measure total cholesterol, HDL cholesterol, triglycerides and glucose. Samples used for testing can be whole blood from a fingerstick (collected in a lithium heparin-coated capillary tube) or venipuncture. The sample is applied to an Cholestech LDX¿ cassette. Description/Part: Cholestech LDX Lipid Profile GLU Cassette/10-991, 99021, 14-531; Cholestech LDX TC HDL GLU Cassette/10-990; Cholestech LDX Lipid Profile Cassette/10-989; Cholestech LDX TC HDL Cassette/10-987
- Z-2475-2019 — Alere Cholestech LDX Analyzer, model # 14-874 containing power supplies with the identifying codes of 1837d and 1843d - Product Usage: The Alere Cholestech LDX System is a small, portable analyzer and test cassette system. The System is for in vitro diagnostic use only. The Lipid Profile GLU Cassette is for the quantitative determination of total cholesterol, HDL (high-density lipoprotein) cholesterol, triglycerides and glucose in whole blood. A TC/HDL (total cholesterol/HDL cholesterol) ratio and estimated values for LDL (low-density lipoprotein) and non-HDL cholesterol are calculated by the Alere Cholestech LDX¿ Analyzer.
- Z-0418-2018 — Triage Drugs of Abuse Plus TCA 25 Test Kit, Model Numbers 92000, 92590, 92591; 25 individually pouched devices, 1 bottle of Wash Solution, 1 Pipette and 50 Pipette Tips in a labeled kit box. Product Usage: The Alere Triage Drugs of Abuse Panel plus Tricyclic Antidepressants uses eight discrete competitive immunoassay procedures for the simultaneous detection and identification of the major drugs and/or the urinary metabolites of eight different drug classes. The use of monoclonal antibodies that are specific for the drugs and/or metabolites of the eight drug classes ensures a high degree of sensitivity and specificity.
- Z-0588-2017 — Alere Triage Total 5 Control Level 1, Model No. 88753 Description of the product: The Triage Total Controls 5 are quality control materials that are used to assist the laboratory in monitoring test performance throughout the measurable range. They are not calibrators and are not used to calibrate the Triage tests. The results of quality control testing do not impact direct patient care and should not influence clinical decision making process the physician uses to make clinical diagnosis for the patient. Indications for Use: The Alere Triage Total 5 Controls are assayed materials to be used with the Alere Triage Cardiac Panel, Alere Triage CardioProfiler Panel, Alere Triage Profiler SOB Panel, Alere Triage BNP Test, Alere Triage D-Dimer Test, and Alere Triage Meters to assist the laboratory in monitoring test performance.
- Z-2778-2016 — LDX Optical Check Cassettes (OCC) Model Number: 10-228 and 14-535 Cassette in box with foam insert. The cassette is used to check the optics system of the LDX analyzer. Product Usage: The Optics Check Cassette is used to check the optics system of the Alere Cholestech LDX¿ Analyzer. It is run once a day before patient samples are tested and after the analyzer has been moved or serviced.
- Z-2361-2016 — Alere INRatio PT/INR Test Strips Model Number: 0100071, 0100139 Product Usage: The INRatio/INRatio2 Test Strips perform a modified version of the one-stage Prothrombin Time test, using a recombinant human thromboplastin reagent. The clot formed in the Prothrombin Time reaction is detected by a change in the electrical impedance of the sample during the coagulation process. The system consists of a monitor and disposable test strips. The monitor measures impedance, heats the test strip to the proper reaction temperature, and provides a user interface. The blood sample is applied to the Test Strip and the clotting reaction occurs on the Test Strip.
- Z-2357-2016 — Alere INRatio2 PT/INR Professional Testing System Model Number: 0200431 Product Usage: The INRatio 2 PT Monitoring system is used for the quantitative measurement of Prothrombin Time (PT) in fresh, capillary whole blood. The INRatio 2 PT Monitoring system is intended for use outside the body (in vitro diagnostic use) by people taking warfarin and other oral anticoagulant (blood thinning) therapy who need to monitor the clotting time of their blood. The INRatio 2 PT Monitoring System is not intended to be used for screening purpose.
- Z-2359-2016 — Alere INRatio2 Replacement Monitor (Home) Model Number: 0200457 Product Usage: Alere INRatio 2 PT/INR Home Monitoring System: The Alere INRatio 2 PT/INR Home Monitoring System, consisting of the INRatio 2 Home Monitor and INRatio PT/INR test strip, is used for quantitative determination of international normalized ratio (INR) in fresh capillary whole blood to monitor the effect of warfarin therapy on clotting time by properly selected suitably trained users (by prescription for home use or other order of a treating physician). Patients must be stabilized (>6 weeks) on warfarin therapy. The Alere INRatio¿2 PT/INR Home Monitoring System is intended for use outside of the body (in vitro diagnostic use). The Alere INRatio¿2 PT/INR Home Monitoring System is not intended to be used for screening purposes.
- Z-2362-2016 — Alere INRatio/ INRatio2 PT/INR Test Strips Model Number: 99007EU, 99007G1, 99007G3, 99007G5, 99007G7, 99008EU, 99008G1, 99008G3, 99008G5, 99008G7 Product Usage: The Alere INRatio¿/INRatio¿2 system uses a modified version of the one-stage PT test. After a drop of blood is applied to the test strip, it is drawn into the test area and mixed with reagents that initiate coagulation. When the blood clots, changes in impedance in the sample are detected by the monitor. The monitor calculates the PT and INR results from this impedance change and reports them on the display. The Alere INRatio/INRatio2 PT/INR Monitoring System is used for the quantitative measurement of Prothrombin Time (PT) in fresh, capillary whole blood. The Alere INRatio/INRatio2 PT/INR Monitoring System is intended for use outside the body (in vitro diagnostic use). The Alere INRatio/INRatio2 PT/INR Monitoring System is intended for professional and home use by people taking warfarin and other oral anticoagulant (blood thinning) therapy who need to monitor the clotting time of their blood. The Alere INRatio/INRatio2 PT/INR Monitoring System is not intended to be used for screening purposes.
Recalls are matched by FDA's recalling-firm name — openFDA's enforcement dataset doesn't reference 510(k) numbers, so a recall here may cover devices beyond this company's 510(k) clearances.
